Dog Walking Pine Island

About: For 2 years I’ve took care of my neighbors dogs by letting them out, feeding them and playing with them. I love animals and I grew up in a household filled with animals. I believe a dog is a humans best friend and I’d love the opportunity to get to know you and your animal! I currently work nights at publix as a grocery stock clerk. I am very flexible and will be able to let your animals out and care for them whenever you need. I would love your trust to take care of them. I take my dog milo for a walk everyday when I get home so that way he gets most of his energy out and then he will lay down and relax for a little bit before wanting to play. I feed him twice a day and give him a bath once a week.

“Miranda has been AMAZING with our hyper golden retriever! She has the best communication and is very detailed when it comes to updates with our dog.”

“My fur child Ben loved Cheryl! She walked a 100 lb lap dog weekday mornings for two weeks, and he was very happy. Cheryl was prompt, reliable, affectionate and attentive to our boy. I will check her availability again in June when I will need a couple more days. Thank you Cheryl!”

About: We can keep your pet safe and loved while you’re away having fun. We are a family of 7, mom, dad, and 5 kids. We have owned dogs for 15 years, small and large breed. We love them all. We lost our best friend fur baby a few years back and decided pet sitting would be a great way to give our love to pets without the heartbreak that comes from losing them. I am an SAHM and husband works from home so we are always around. We love to go on walks and also have a fenced in yard to play in. We love to give lots of cuddles and belly rubs. If there’s any special needs I’d be glad to help. If your dog needs love and care while you’re away, we are the family to give it. All breeds are welcome as long as they’re friendly. We hope to care for your fur baby soon. I am a stay at home mom so I am home to care For your baby, if I am not around my work from home husband will be. We make sure to ask all dog owners their dogs special needs, such as do they eat out of the trash so we can came sure it is always put away or If they eat anything reachable on the counter, always making sure nothing is left that they can get.

About: Walks, Wiggles & Belly Rubs Guaranteed ! Every dog has a unique temperament — playful, shy, energetic, or relaxed — and I adjust my approach to match. I’m patient, observant, and committed to building trust so your dog feels safe and understood.” I work from home, which allows me to offer flexible scheduling and consistent supervision. Caring for animals is already part of my everyday life. With my own cats and bearded dragon, I follow structured routines, and I bring that same level of consistency and attentiveness to every client. I make sure pets fit comfortably into my schedule — not the other way around I focus on creating a calm, safe, and structured environment whether pets are in my home or theirs. I work remotely, which allows me to provide steady supervision and flexible care throughout the day. I follow routines closely, monitor behavior carefully, and provide consistent communication so both pets and owners feel secure.

About: Hello! I’m a lifelong animal lover with a deep respect for all living creatures. I live in a spacious home on 1/3 acre with 2 securely fenced back yards ideal for pets to run, play and relax. I’ve been caring for various pets since I was 12. I’ve had fur babies my entire life (mostly Shih Tzus) and helped care for livestock on my grandparents’ farm. Over the years, I’ve taken care of many cats and just about every dog breed—from gentle giants like Saint Bernards to tiny Chihuahuas—and pets of all ages, from playful puppies to sweet seniors. I’m experienced with both short visits and extended care, having looked after pets anywhere from a single day up to two months, in both my home and my clients’ homes. I believe love, exercise, playtime, and structure are important for a pet’s happiness and well-being. Pet transportation is available as well. Most importantly, I’ll love and care for your pets as if they were my own. My goal is always to make them feel safe, comfortable, and truly at home. I can send daily photo and video updates to keep you connected. Contact me to discuss your pets needs and arrange a meet & greet. I set my own work schedule but my goal is to pet care full time so I’m now currently fully available all days and hours. I have a large and small fenced yards in a quiet safe neighborhood great for walks. Furry friends are welcome on my sectional and in my pool if approved. My home is peaceful and calming. Whether in my home or yours they’re my priority and will be safely and lovingly cared for exactly as you request.

About: I grew up helping my grandparents take care of their rescues. Feeding, bathing, and walking them as well as vet trips. Because of growing up around animals I now have two dogs and three cats. I currently work 40 hours a week, however because my schedule has me working nights, and it’s a set schedule, it’s easy to help someone care for their pets. Growing up around dogs and dog sitting for a friend, I know how to treat dogs and know that all dogs are different. I’m willing to stick to a schedule if need be.

About: I know what it's like to hand your dog over to someone else — that flicker of worry, even when you trust them. Our dogs aren't just pets. They're family. They greet us at the door like we've been gone for years, they curl up next to us on the hard days, and they love us without any conditions at all. Trusting someone else with that is not a small thing. So here's what I want you to know: when I'm with your dog, I'm not just watching them — I'm watching out for them. Every walk, every outing, every minute we spend together, I take seriously. Not because it's a job, but because I know exactly what it means to love a dog like family, and I know what it means to be the one responsible for them when you can't be. My goal isn't just to keep your dog safe. It's to give you real peace of mind — so that wherever you are, you can stop thinking about whether they're okay, and just know they are. Loved, looked after, and genuinely cared for, the same way I'd want someone to care for mine. Your fur baby is in good hands. I won't take that lightly. More information about me: Dogs have been part of my life since I was 10 years old, when I got my first German Shepherd Dog puppy named Storm. I built him a pen in the laundry room — and slept in there with him for weeks, just to keep him company. That was the start of it. Since then, I've owned and raised about a dozen German Shepherd Dogs, and I've trained dozens of dogs over the years for myself, friends, and family. Today my pack is three: my two German Shepherd Dogs; Ella (10) and Sadie (8), my Belgian Malinois, Mila (2.5). Living with working breeds has shaped how I think about exercise — it's not about wearing a dog out until they're panting. It's about engaging their mind as much as their body. That's the philosophy behind everything I offer. A walk should have a purpose. A trek should be an adventure, not just a loop around the block — somewhere new to sniff, explore, and think. Outing and training sessions build real confidence, not just compliance. I tailor every visit, every outing and every training session to your dog's personality and energy, whether that's a relaxed neighborhood walk, an early morning outing to beat the Florida heat, a solo trek to a trail or pet-friendly store, or focused training time. Multiple daily walks and custom treks are built around what works for your family — just ask. Based in Weeki Wachee, serving west Hernando County. I treat every dog I work with like one of my own. I am fully insured and will provide real references upon request. This is my full-time job — not a side gig, not something squeezed in around another career. When I'm with your dog, that's where my attention is. Every walk, every outing, every training session. Whether I'm in your home or out on a walk or trek, your dog gets my full, undivided attention — no other dogs, no distractions. I follow your routine and any instructions you give me for feeding, medication, or specific needs, and I treat your home with the same respect I'd want for my own: doors locked, things put back where they belong, and your dog's space left clean and comfortable. For walks and treks, I make sure water is available and accidents are cleaned up before I leave. For overnight stays, I keep your dog on their normal schedule as much as possible — same feeding times, same bedtime routine — so there's as little disruption to their world as I can manage. I'm also comfortable administering medication when needed. At the end of the day, my approach is simple: I treat every dog and every home like it's my own.

About: I have hands on experience caring for animals of all ages, sizes, and breeds through both pet sitting and dog walking. I’ve spent time watching pets in their homes, making sure they stay comfortable in their routine while their owners are away or welcoming my home for a mini vacation! This includes feeding, refreshing water, basic care, and giving them plenty of attention and companionship. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and take pride in being dependable and attentive. Whether it’s a quick walk or extended pet sitting, I give every pet the same level of care and patience I would give my own! Also to add my sweet babies get along with all animals. I work from home and go into the office a few times a month so I do have a flexible schedule for your fur babies! I have a large, fully fenced-in yard where your dog can safely run and play. I also have two friendly, well socialized dogs who love meeting new friends and can provide great companionship during your pet’s stay. I always prioritize safety and comfort, so I make sure introductions are done carefully and that every dog feels at ease. If your dog prefers their own space or if crate training is part of their routine, I’m happy to accommodate!

I will care for and love any animal presented to me! My schedule and flexibility is wide open to ensure that I can show your animals all of the love and care they require and need! I will come and feed, walk, and love your animals while you are gone so they don't feel lost or abandoned!

I also have an SUV and can transport them for a walk at a park if they require high energy release!

About: I have been around dogs my entire life! Growing up, I had a sweet Pomeranian named Lily. Throughout my entire life, I've taken care of little dogs and big dogs too! I currently have three kitties named Princess Bubbles, Miss Claudette, and Roxas and an exciting Jack Russell named Charlie! When my friends and family are out of town, they rely on me to help take care of their babies in their absence. I am comfortable with staying with your babies, feeding them, walking them, and giving them so much love while you are away! I am available anytime during the week to help with your furry friends! I work from home, so I have a lot of availability to travel and tend for your babies. My job is pretty lenient, so I have a lot of time. I am available whenever, but have preferred times! If you work with me, I'll work with you. I am open to whatever works for you and for what makes you feel comfortable! My fur babies are all free roaming, but I understand some owners set up limitations for their babies. I want to respect your home and your surrounding, while providing the best care for the babies who are with me.

“So glad I met Samantha while walking my dog and she was walking a client’s dog! She is very caring and friendly and I hired her to walk my baby, Penny, for later in the week. She did a great job and would definitely have her walk Penny again! 😌💕🐾”

About: From pups to great Danes, turtles to amazon green parrots, fish and more, love them all. Cats are great but only can do drop in visits. I work from home and pets will go out supervised in the yard and walks, weather permitting( down pour rain). Letting pets out IS MY PRIORITY!! I have a fenced in shaded yard perfect for small sunbathing and rolling around in the grass. Great for doing zoomies and playing ball lots of fun!!

About: I have decided to not work the 9to5 jobs anymore and to do what I'm passionate about, furbabies. I am not new to taking care of doggies and cats, just new to advertising. I've grown up with dogs. I have been fostering and rescuing for 10 years. I have experience with the bouncy happy dogs, the shy and skittish, the ones whom you have to earn their trust.Furbabies are my passion. Each fur baby has their own unique personality and quirks. I have very flexible schedule and can accommodate easily. I don't have a full time job and spend most my days playing with my dogs and cat. I will follow the owners instructions on how they want their fur baby cared for. When I'm watching the fur babies it's all about them

About: I’ve cared for pets of all sizes and personalities, from energetic dogs to various cat personalities. Growing up with a range of animals, including dogs, cats, pigs, chickens, ducks, and bunnies, I developed a deep understanding of their needs. My experience includes walking, feeding, and providing lots of love and attention. I’m reliable, flexible, and treat every pet as if they were my own. Whether your pet needs a calm companion or an active playmate, I’m here to ensure they feel safe and happy while you're away. Pet care fits seamlessly into my schedule as I currently don't have a job. My bouquet business allows me flexibility, giving me ample time to care for pets daily. I can establish routines for feeding, walking, and playing, ensuring they receive the attention and care they deserve while I work on my floral creations. This balance keeps me engaged and provides a fulfilling routine. In my clients' homes, I focus on creating a safe and comfortable environment for their pets. I always take the time to check for any hazards and follow their specific routines and preferences closely. I approach each pet with patience and kindness, helping them feel relaxed. I also like to keep pet owners updated with messages and photos, so they know their pets are happy and well-cared for. Building that trust is really important to me!
